New research reveals health risks in deep-processed foods.

Original title: New study reveals health risks of deep-processed foods
Deep-processed foods have become an important part of many people's diets in modern society, but two studies published in the new issue of the British Medical Journal say the link between deep-processed foods and health risks such as cardiovascular disease and premature death supports the view of previous studies that deep-processed foods have health risks.according to
, the deep-processed foods in the study include packaged baked goods and biscuits, bubble drinks, additive-containing foods, soups made from dehydrated vegetables, etc., which usually contain higher levels of sugar, fat, salt, but lack vitamins and fiber. In some countries, these deep-processed foods account for 25 to 60 per cent of people's daily energy intake.
French researchers followed the diet and health of more than 100,000 people between 2009 and 2018 and found that deep-processed foods were associated with a number of health risks, such as a 10 percent increase in the proportion of foods that make up the diet, a 12 percent increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease, and an 11 percent increased risk of cerebrovascular disease.
Spanish researchers, who tracked about 20,000 college graduates between 1999 and 2014, found that those who ate less than two servings of deep-processed food a day had a 62 percent higher risk of death.
researchers say there have been studies in the past showing a link between deep-processed foods and obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and some cancer risks, and the two new studies further support the findings. However, these studies reveal mainly correlations, and more research is needed on the specific causal relationship between deeply processed foods and health risks.
